Port Nonsense

Wolf Shitzer is on cnn and the big money people are worried. He also talks to a woman from UAI. Don't get this wrong, but when does a woman speak for an arab country?

Most of the people I talked to were surprised that a foreign company has been running the ports up till now. I didn’t know it either.
The UAE company is as qualified as any to do the job and security doesn’t seem to be a problem, but it still irks me that our critical infrastructure, at least some of it, is foreign owned. Globalization be damned.
